1.09 Patch corrupted?

[ChuckLe]

I downloaded the 1.09 patch from the Civ Fanatics site here, but it has a different MD5 hash to the file from 3D Downloads and File Front.

The one here has a MD5 hash of:

215a03a42cbdcf9ed7456b891453816b

Whereas the File Front and 3D downloads file has a MD5 hash of:

49a982ee75b9460ebdc538fde9ba4e96

The file size is exactly the same, but obviously they are different files.

HTH?

PS. The Apolyton site file also has the 49a9... hash too.

I've downloaded it from here, no problem so far.

I got the patch from in-game and havent had any problems with it (except the 1706 error which it seems is ok to ignore).

Hmm, indeed, one byte difference. (Two bits, to be precise.)

$ cmp -b Civ4Patch1.09.exe v109PATCHREL.exe
Civ4Patch1.09.exe v109PATCHREL.exe differ: byte 5170215, line 19835 is 36 ^^ 34 ^\

That might explain why I got a CRC error on Civilization4.exe when upgrading. (I hit "Ignore" and it seems to work, but better safe than sorry, so I guess I'll reinstall and reupgrade.)

EXACTLY

Finally, someone appreciates what a difference a couple of bits can make!

I got exactly the same error Michael. Perhaps those bits were part of the CRC32 check for the Civ IV .exe file too? Anyway, a CRC check failed somewhere, that's for sure.
